Best Answer

In 1986 Saks Fifth Avenue and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in Cleveland, Ohio put on an event named "Crimes of Fashion". The event was also held in 1988. Daryl and Daryl from the Newhart Show attended as "Fashion Police" shortly afterwards they appeared on the sitcom as "Fashion Police". This is the earliest occurrence of this term we can find. Clifford and Peggy Stark chaired the committee and coined this term in 1986.
